In a week dominated by the Government’s refusal to extend Marcus Rashford’s campaign to ensure that no child should go to bed hungry it was heart-warming to hear that Gasheads Against Food Poverty have come up with a brilliant initiative. They suggested that any Gashead who would have bought a pass to watch tomorrow’s now postponed game could donate their £10 to North Bristol Foodbank instead.

This appeal struck a chord with Gasheads who have been donating all day with over £16,000 being donated so far today.

If this strikes a chord with you too and you would also like to donate you can do so at https://www.totalgiving.co.uk/mypage/northbristolfoodbank

North Bristol Foodbank have outlets in Horfield, Lockleaze, Southmead, Filton and Patchway and exist purely on the goodwill of others.
